East Coast Truck Shops

I live in VA(Im in the military) and I am from Ga and I am gonna start adding aftermarket parts to my raptor soon. I was wondering if anyone knows any good shops to install parts for me. I want to add and ADD bumper, exhaust, intake, suspension upgrade to fit 37" tires. I would love to do the work myself but do not have the smarts for some stuff and dont have a place and the tools to do well all of it. does anyone have advice as to good shops and places to go?

If you're in the military, usually bases offer auto hobby shops to assist in the modification/repair of vehicles. Exhaust and stuff like that, you might want a shop to do it.

I know for sure that Production Offroad in Va Beach has a Raptor of their own, that would be my first choice and then after that Eastern Truck and Accesorsies in Norfolk would be my second.

they do offer places to work with tools but alot of this stuff I want to do is a bit over my head and I would hate to tear my raptor apart and not be able to put it back together! I havev a 94 jeep I work on and if I mess something up or cant put it back together then its ok because its an old jeep raptor a whole nother story!

Thanks I will look them up!

Hey Mike, I am in chesapeake on the va beach border. We'll have to meet up sometime. Production Offroad did some stuff to a raptor and eastern offroad is a good shop to check out.

we will have to meet up sometime! do you know of any good places to go off road around the area? I am new to the area all the places I know to go are down in GA

So far i've been to the mountains in Blacksburg VA (fire roads) and Carova down in the outer banks. Haven't beaten on the truck too much yet. Not too many good places besides those two where you can get decent speed and use the truck for its intended purpose.

There are a few black raptors in the area. What part of va beach are you in?

I have seen one other TB Raptor so far around here. I live close to NAS Oceana as that is where I work.

I'll let you know the next time I head down to obx!
